I MILES GOODYEAR CABIN, TOE
FIRST HOUSE IN UTAH, BEING
MOVED TO LOT ON Q T H STREET
IOgden's oldest relic, ;i little log
cabin built by Miles Goodyear in 184.',
two ears before the pionerc came
to the state, and oriemalh 'ocated
near the Weber river at the foot of
1 ', what is now Twenty-eighth street, is
io be moved from the real of '.'le rosi
d-'iirc of Mrs Mjnerva She 1266
Washington avenue, v.'iciv it was
placed for safe keepinc several yers
hko. to a lot on Ninth street it the
reei of the fire station where will
be covered with corrugated iron fori
protection from storm-, until a final
place in the city can be arranged I
where it w ill be preserved as one of
the most interesting relics of the
state.
The cabin Is the property of (he
Daughters of the Pioneers of Ogden
and these ladies have persuaded the
city to have the little old home taken
especial care of until a "final resting
place" is secured.
At present the organization has its
many interesting relics in a special
room in the Carnegie library ouilding
but no place has ever been found for
tho log cabin, which lor yeaa lus
weainerea tne storms nni is sui in
lair condition.
Early History.
Tbe cabin was discovered by Cap
fain James Drown In charge of a com
pany of the earliest, pioneer and the
property was bought b Captain
Drown from Goodyear in the autumn
HIV 1847 when Goodyear, who by ,i
HI grant from the Spanish government,
owned all property from the Weber
river to Hot Springs md from the
lake to the mountains, part of which
is now Ogden e.ty.
When Captain Drown discovered the
cabin it was surrounded bj a fence
formed of logs anrl it was within this
1 enclosure that, the iir.t Fourth of
III Woman Is Beaten
j SALT LAKE. Dec. 4 Severely beat
en on the head and body with what
Mlj examining physicians believe to bo a I
1 fractured skull and with a bullet I
wound In her richt side, Mrs. Blanche
Riley. 30. is at Holy Cross hospital in
a critical condition She may die. was
I f the physicians' verdict last night.
I I Mrs. Riley was attacked in her quar
I f ters In a rooming house at 621; East
Second South between 9 and 10 o'clock
yesterday morning by an unknown as-
I :' s.-uiant After beating h.s ictlm Into
III unconsciousness the attacker rolled up
what evidence he could of the affair
'! 1 and threw It down the chimney of an
;. dJoining building, where the police
July celebration was held in Ogden.
In 1857 Amos P Stone, father of .
I. Stone of 1642 Liberty avenue,
bought the cabin from Captain Brown
and used it as a blacksmith shop.
The building was moved from the We
ber rier bottoms to just wesl of the
tabernacle and upon the death of Mr.
Stone, Mrs. Minerva Shaw a .laughter,
purchased the cabin from ber mother
and had it moved to the rear of the
Shai home on Washington avenue a
shingle roof was added .o protect the
building.
This afternoon numerous relic peek
ers are on the ground to see the cabin
moved and to take photographs. Hug
bart Anderson is in charge of the mov
ing, and lie stated that group of peo
ple had gathered at the Shaw resi
dence and were looking over the "old
timer;." All seemed to be especially
interested in the peepholes in the
cabin which were placed thre by the
first owner for the purpose ot "spot
ting" the treacherous Indians with
whom the earh Bettlers of pgden and
he state had numerous clashes.
To Protect Cabin.
The history of the cabin would bo
one of interest to many tourists going
through the city The Daughters of
Pioneers are hoping in the very near
future to secure a satisfactory place
for all the relics which they possess
and a building in which the cabn may
be guarded from the elements
Recently Salt Lake City i --quested
that Hie cabin be brought to the capi
tal where it would be placed en dis
play with other relics of rarly days,
but the ogden organization denied the
Salt Lakers their request and the cab-j
in is to be kept in this city.
So today the little old loer cabin
with a history is to take t.-. third trip
and the Daughters of th" Pioneers are
to see that no harm comes to It.
I COAL FAMINE BEGINS TO HAVE
j INFLUENCE ON OOBEN AFFAIRS
r W RESTRICTIONS ARE ISSUED
I Alarmed by the serious . ituation
impending by reason of the i hortage
I I) of fuel due to the sink" of coal mln
I I ers. railroad officials and otherr. inter
ested in the handling of fuel in a big
way are meeting today in Salt Lake
to discuss measures to doie out the
dwindling supply.
W. H. Chevers, general agent of the
I'nlon Pacific at Ogden, is in fttend
II f. a nee.
Bf. Only vital industries will receive
fuel until the crisis is past, it is be
lieved, and it is declared likelv that
thousands will be thrown out of work
by the general shutdown
One of the first plants in Utah to
cease operations through lack 1 fuel
was the Utah Iron & Steel company in
Salt Lake.
Garficlds' Instructions.
The following order from Dr. G?r
Mil fit Id, fuel director, has been -cei.d
by railroad officials here .m l explain
what must be done to avoid Msaster
during the crisis.
"It is neeessar that coal -hall be
In used for only essential purposes. Pub
lie utilities consuming coal should dis
fl I continue to furnish power, ha1 and
R; - l'ht to non-esaential industries and
should only consume sufficient coal
j I io produce enough light, power and
Ji l liraf to nirot the actual urgent needs
of the people. Advertising sings and
lHI I display signs of various kinds. r.eecs
li PROMISES TO POINT;
I WHERE LIQUOR
I: WAS BOUGHT
Cpon his promise to go io he at-j
torney general at the Btato capital
and accompany any man that the a!
torney general may designate io the
place where he purchased the liquor!
with which he became Intoxicated,
Bl I John McGraw, arrested by 1 1 - slui ,
iff's department a few days ago upon
thd charge of being drunk, was given I
: a thirty-day suspended sentence in!
mm , the city court this morning by Judge
H J I. R. Robert t--.
In passing sentence, the poui'l re
i f erred to the fact that while drunken-,
ness is a misdemeanor it was not as
r.nle or trafficking In contraband h i
l quor He added that inasmuch as the I
defendant, had promised to show the
officers the person or persons from
j hom he had purchased the liquor, he!
would be lenient. This Is the second i
1 II time since Judge Roberts hart been on j
ihe bench in the city court that an of-
fender has been given a suspended
! sentence upon his promise to aid the,
officers in apprehending the violator)
H p of the law.
sitatlr.g the use of coal should oe cur
tailed and no coal should be distrib
uted for such purposes. Pursuant to
this policy l havt requested he rail
road administration in 'he di-tribu-tion
of coal now or hereafter in its
possesion, to limit distribution to
these essential and urgent cas'.js. As
far as practicable; until ;ho conditions
warrant a change in the distribution
of coal, will be limited to the first 'ive
classes of the priority list. Retail
dealers who distribute coal for house
hold requirements, heating hotel?,
building, hospitals, etc., should take
j every precaution to see 'hat oal is
, only delivered where it is absolutely
j required and then only in such limited
quantities that the supply ran; be dis
tributed widely and prevent suffering.
I The state and other local authorities
j can maer tally aid in inspecting and
si pi rvislng such distribution b, retail
dealers, and the U. S. government will
be glad to leave the supervision and
control of such distribution by retail
dealers entire!) to any state, county,
or municipality which may make pro
vision therefor. The distribution io
retail dealers must necessarily be ad
ministered by the railroad administra
tion in pursuance to the orders al
ready made by the United States f.-el
! administration in carrying out the pri
orities which have been prescribed un
'der the Lever act.'

Runaway Horses
Strike Lamp Post
1 A bit of Ice on the corner of Twentv
fourth street and Grant avenue averted
B serious accident today, when a run
away horse e kidded on the slipperv
surface and sent a runaway- team into
R liKhl pole.
The accident happened shortlv be
fore 12 o'clock when a team of horses
which were tied in front of a Japanese
establishment, between Grant and
Lincoln avenues, succeeded in slipping
their bridles The animals dashed
towards Washington avenue and at
the intersection at Grant avenue, were
seemingly headed for an automobile
which was crossing the street The
driver of the car on seeing the ap
proaching tem, threw on the emerg
ency brake and stopped his car in the
path of the horses. That the team
would miss the automobile seemed im
possible until the hoof of the horse on
the right side struck thel cy spot.
The horse stumbled and Jerked its
mate from the course, and before the
team could again pursue its mad dash
down the street, it had collided with
a steel street lamp poet. The horses
were drawing a beet wagon which yvas
loaded with 800 pounds of coal.
When the team stopped, bystanders
held the horses until the owner, a Jap
anese farmer, appeared.

WfiLK BEHIND HER
mm
Comparison of thintrs oriental and
occidental vrere strongly brought out
today when a Japanese husband and
his wife walked along Twenty teurth
street towards Washington avenue
tiom were uresseu in tne gain common
to tho United Slates, tho husband
wearing a black derby, and other
I clothing of a citizen of this country.
I The wife was likewise jcarbed in a
j fashion common to tbe weaker sex of j
America and, while there might have;
I been some question as to her taste
in headgear, sh presented a good ap
pearance. The contrast was not in manner of
dress but in the age-old custom of Nip- j
pon, which decrees that a wife, when
accompanying her husband, shall
walk several paces to the rear. Not
withstanding their clothing, this Jap
anese couple continued to observe the
tradition of Japan.
